Industry Leadership & Advocacy

For the present and future success of the fitness industry

We are on the front lines working with members, partners, and federations to secure the present and future success of the health and fitness industry. Together, we advocate for the industry and access to physical activity to increase global health, happiness, and prosperity.

Maximize the Good

As we’ve seen over the past 40 years, and more intensely these past few years, governments and policymakers can and do have an enormous effect on our industry and the health of the citizenry. We seek to maximize the good impact while minimizing the bad.
